Edie Sedgwick, precisely 5ft 5 ½ (166.4 cm) tall, was an iconic American socialite, model, and actress whose petite stature became central to her waif-like image in the 1960s counterculture.
Her compact 5ft 5 ½ frame, noted in a 1965 Telegraph article as weighing just 103 pounds, amplified her delicate, androgynous allure, making her a perfect muse for Andy Warhol's Factory scene and films like Poor Little Rich Girl.
- Starred in Warhol productions showcasing her slender, height-defined silhouette.
- Inspired modern artists, with Taylor Momsen calling her style 'cool' and Lady Gaga referencing her in Applause and Marry the Night videos.
